Long Version:
This Privacy Policy discloses the privacy practices for Scornd. This policy applies solely to the information collected by our website and will notify you of the following:
- Information Collection, Use, and Sharing: At Scornd, we do not collect or share any personally identifiable information about our users. We do not log the IP addresses of our visitors. The uploaded photo is used solely to extract a face and perform the search. The original photo is immediately discarded after the face extraction process. Low-resolution thumbnails of the extracted face are deleted after 24 hours, along with any cached search results. We do not index, publish, or share uploaded photos.
- About Scornd Database: Scornd indexes and caches small, low-resolution thumbnails of faces and URL links from publicly available web pages, such as public news websites and blogs. We do not store any additional information, such as names, locations, or involvement in criminal activity. Our AI is trained not to index or search for children's faces.
